February 7, 20196112 Views

In this rivalry, we compare two C-Segment hot hatches from the mid-00’s, with very similar specifications. In one corner, we have the second generation of the Seat Leon Cupra and in the other corner there is the mighty Opel Astra H OPC (also known as the Holden or Vauxhall Astra VXR). Both came fitted with turbocharged 2.0 liter engines and aggressive bodykits, however one of them had a more practical 5-door bodystyle and the other was exclusively available as a 3-door.

So lets start with a design battle before we move on to their specifications.
